My undergraduate GPA is in the 3.1 range. I've yet to take the LSAT and I understand that will play a large role in my admissions success, but from looking around online it feels like I'm screwed with a 3.1 GPA. I understand I'm not going to Harvard or any school like that, but will a strong LSAT score help me get beyond a lower GPA and "get in" to a decent law school?

Your LSAT score will have more weight than your GPA anyway... so invest all of your assets in doing well on the LSAT... but are you a senior? Take some fluff classes next term ( if you can ) to boost your GPA.
